Hanged on a tree...

Post by Giuseppe »

Is it possible a dating of our documents according to the change from a oldest view of Jesus's death (hanged on a tree) to a more recent crucifixion, to end in a Roman crucifixion?

The Ascension of Isaiah (in his genuine version) may give textual evidence of the tree as the original crux of Jesus?

Why should not take precedence in this case the lectio difficilior ?

Thanks for any reply.

No.

NO.

Only 3:13-4:22 is dated early, and even at that time had knowledge of the Christian theology.
